Rules & Regs / No Smoking Policy

Here at Bristol Motor Speedway, we desire the safest environment possible for fans to enjoy the event experience.

In an effort to enhance fan comfort during the races, Bristol Motor Speedway will continue its carry-in bag policy for our events. In addition to permitting one 14-inch cooler, fans now may bring one carry-in bag only. That item also may not exceed the 14-inch size limit. All carry-in items will be searched prior to entry into Speedway grandstands. It is recommended that fans make their way into the gates at least one hour prior to green flag to allow proper time for inspection of these items.
